That's what drew me to rock music in the first place - that sense of remaking the world on your own terms.

Sex is funny and love is serious.

I try to be the fixer of situations and I gravitate to people who are institutional misfits.

Life is cruel and unfair, my friends, and that is fact.

Music is the only thing in this world, with the exception of sneezing and looking at the sunset, that takes you to a place that's above the mundane. Everything else is just bullshit.

What we value about music and literature are the moments that they create in our minds when we encounter them.

I don't really believe in palm readers and crystal balls and tarot cards, but I respond to the need for them.
